Your website with be completely unique and created specifically for your target audience. We can build sites of varying sizes and capabilities. There are two main stages of a web project, the first is the design and the second is the development. Great web design comes from good and strong planning. Great web development comes from hands on experience.
Many of the sites we build are Content Management System (CMS) based. It will allow you to update your own website with ease. There are many different software options that CMS's are built from, but our preference is the very flexible and powerful ExpressionEngine. We specialise in it and making our clients sites logical and quick to update.
It really is as simple as logging in with a username and password, selecting the page you want to edit or add to, uploading an image or typing the text and hitting save. As if by magic thats your site updated for the world to see. New products, pdfs, images, maps, password protected areas, galleries, forums plus a lot more are all possible.
E-Commerce or Shopping carts as they are sometimes known allow payments to be taken directly on your site. Its a multi billion pound industry and an industry that has not only survived in the recent recession and economic troubles, but expanded and thrived in it. The software that we use has recently been bought over by Ebay, and is incredibly powerful. It allows small businesses to sell and compete with much bigger brands.
All our projects utilise User Experience (UX) design. This process is about marring your business goals with your users goals. Getting into the minds and thinking about the user completing specific tasks on your website is very important. It may sound like hot air but its proven to give long term success and fantastic return on investment (ROI).
Devices such as the Iphone, Blackberry and Android powered phones are growing in popularity each day. Their usage has exploded and the mobile web space moves at an incredibly fast pace. Every standard web project should now consider a mobile site. Whilst not yet viable for most businesses this is a option that will be needed in years to come to compete in the market, but may even be required today.
